5-Day Wellness and Adventure Reboot in the Cederberg, South Africa

The Reboot Retreat is a five-day, four-night immersive experience based in the Cederberg mountains, about 200 km north of Cape Town. The area is famous for its dramatic rock formations, ancient caves, and San tribal rock art, and the retreat uses this landscape as the backdrop for a mix of adventure and holistic healing.

A typical day starts with yoga and meditation led by Lu, a Hatha yoga teacher trained at the Sivananda Ashram in India. After a plant-based breakfast prepared by a private chef with a fine-dining background, you'll head out on an activity—a hike to the Wolfberg Cracks, a SUP session on the river, or a drive to see ancient cave art. The itinerary is paced so there's time to relax by the pool or book a massage (optional) before dinner.

The retreat is the creation of Kayden Kleinhans, an adventure filmmaker and traveler whose TV series 'Global Wheeling' has aired on Discovery and the History Channel. After experiencing the mental health impacts of lockdown, Kayden developed the retreat to combine the endorphin boost of outdoor exercise with ancient practices like meditation and breathwork. He and his team—which includes massage therapist and Reiki master Sonica, and yoga and breathwork instructor Lu—aim to help you reset both body and mind.

What makes this retreat different is the combination of high-quality adventure activities with genuine holistic healing. You're not just going on a hike; you're hiking to a sacred arch for a sunrise meditation. You're not just doing a breathing exercise; you're doing Wim Hof breathwork before an ice bath in the mountains. There are talks by indigenous Khoisan elders, astronomer-led stargazing sessions, and a night camping under the Wolfberg Arch. It's a complete package that's both challenging and restorative.
